Summary
Former NSA Senior Intelligence Analyst Russ Tice says he first learned his agency was spying on Secretary of State Colin Powell and the Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman Gen. Shinseki in the run-up to the Iraq War. Then he discovered widespread spying on lawyers, the press, every member of the Supreme Court, Justice Alito before he was appointed to the Court, and Barack Obama who had just won his Senate primary. Russ said he knew it was really, really bad.
Tice says he first asked to talked with his handler, then NSA Director General Michael Hayden—his requests were denied.
He was harassed in retaliation, and he then decided to go to the press—
We continue his story today-and how Russ Tice became NSA’s first Whistleblower, and how pervasively our Intel agencies are spying on American citizens today.

| 0:00.0 | Hello everybody, I'm Lou Dobbs, and this is the Great America Show, with Truth, Justice, |
| 0:05.6 | and the American Way every day, great to have you with us, and here we go. |
| 0:10.4 | I'll speak to McCarthy looking for President Biden to negotiate on federal spending, of |
| 0:15.9 | which there's far too much, and McCarthy says he'll go along with raising the debt ceiling |
| 0:21.1 | now, and raise it substantially. |
| 0:23.9 | He'll take it up another one and a half trillion dollars, which would cover expected government |
| 0:29.3 | spending through next March. |
| 0:31.4 | In return, McCarthy says he wants Biden to agree to cut $130 billion of federal spending. |
| 0:38.4 | That would mean clawing back billions in COVID slush funds in student loan forgiveness, get |
| 0:44.7 | rid of market distorting green energy credits, and repeal that $80 billion to the IRS and |
| 0:52.4 | the hiring of nearly 90,000 new IRS agents and auditors. |
| 0:57.7 | We have a deficit and a debt crisis because of Biden's out of control spending. |
| 1:03.7 | This year's deficit approaches one and a half trillion dollars, and will run at least |

| 1:15.2 | The national debt now is approaching $32 trillion. |
| 1:19.2 | That means President Biden has watched the national debt rise $10 trillion since he took |
| 1:25.0 | office. |
| 1:26.0 | It will have risen 50% in just three years, and the size of our economy our GDP just can't |
| 1:33.2 | keep up. |
| 1:34.3 | It's now at $26 trillion, and Wall Street is talking recession at the end of this year. |
| 1:40.5 | It's not good. |
